Product AvailabilityThe primary shipping season for our company is starting with the new
crop in September, and finishing with storage crop in June. During
this time period we monitor the quality and availability to ensure
that our customers receive the best product possible.

Crop ProtectionRed Isle Produce carries a complete line of crop protectants for
farmers on Prince Edward Island. Crop protectants are delivered
directly to the farm by Red Isle Produce. This helps us to maintain
a very good relationship during the summer season with the farmers
and gives us a good understanding about the availability and quality
of the growing crop.

High yielding variety; good grade of large tubers. Good resistance to second growth. Grades well with few culls. Good storage quality, needs through-the-pile ventilation. High specific gravity. For seed production, plants should be 15 to 20 cm apart and for processing, 30 to 40 cm apart. Reduced fertilization decreases the difficulty in top-killing.NOTE: foliage is very sensitive to applications of the herbicide metribuzin (Lexone®, Sencor®) so this herbicide must be applied well before emergence.

Utilization - excellent for boiling, baking, and french frying, unsuitable for chipping. Good potential for count carton trade and all season processing.
